Asian Legend 味香村

First time visiting this particular location. Won't receive super friendly service but they get their work done. The food was better than the other location I had visited before.

They do not have congee, so just be mindful of that. Otherwise it's a well known franchise that's been around in Toronto for quite some time now. All of their dishes promise certain level of quality and are generally tasty. My favorite here is the sizzling beef with mushroom and green onion - they don't use the typical cremini mushroom that are usually served with this dish, but rather uses oyster mushroom which gives you a rich, bitter flavor that goes really well with this since its laden with black bean sauce.

The chain has gotten too big for its own good. They're packed and way too busy. Service is mediocre. Staff are running around like madmen. Food is OK. Some items taste like they're reheated. Feels like they're just trying to keep up. The attention to detail simply isn't there.
